Caley Sessions scored 29 points and Whitney McElhinny added 12 as the Lady Rams topped Centerville, 69-51, to close out play in the PC Border War Tournament Friday night in Unionville.

It was the second big win in as many nights for Schuyler, which defeated Putnam County on Thursday.

“We are ecstatic,” Sessions said. “We’re super pumped.”

Schuyler and Centerville were tied, 20-20, with 5:34 left in the first half when the Rams began to seize control of the game. A three-point play by Laynee Schubert made it a six-point game, and the Rams held a 34-28 lead at the break.

They outscored Centerville 16-6 in the third quarter to blow it open, and cruised to the win.

Schuyler head coach Thomas Kirkland praised his team’s unselfish play, saying they’d set a goal for half their made field goals to be assisted field goals.

Sessions said sharing the ball is working.

“We’ve been trying to work more together as a team,” she said. “We have prayer before the game and we’re all praying that we work together.”

Makenna Pershy led Centerville with 14 points.

Centerville led the game 16-14 after the first quarter, and Schuyler made some early adjustments defensively that may have tilted the game in its favor.

“I wanted [us] to push them and see what they could handle,” Kirkland said. “We wanted to force them into travels and turnovers.”

Schubert scores seven of her nine points in the first half. Kirkland said the freshman gives the Rams an added dimension.
